One Week Closer

Week One of Spring Training officially concluded this past Saturday, as the DC Baseball Jackets took some time off yesterday to recoup for round two. Spring Training breaks down in a few different ways for the Niners - consisting of individual workout times for both position players and pitchers, team practices and various weight sessions. Only 24 days until the Jackets journey down to Florence, KY for Opening Day to take on Calvin. In the meantime, Spring Training rolls on today - here's a recap of last week and also a preview of what's in store for the Purple and Gold:

What's the Buzz?
